Does anyone still believe @justinsuntron ? Justin’s favorite move is playing the victim while making baseless allegations to cover up his own misconduct. Same playbook, different target. WLFI isn't the first. We have the contracts. We have the evidence. We have the truth. See you in court pal.

Ethereum treasury firm ETHZilla has purchased two CFM56-7B24 jet engines for $12.2 million through a newly formed aerospace subsidiary after selling at least $114.5 million worth of ETH. The engines are leased to a major airline. ETHZilla’s shares have fallen about 97% from their August peak. The company is partnering with regulated broker-dealer Liquidityio to tokenize real-world assets, including aircraft engines, auto loans, and home loans, with the first tokenized offerings expected in Q1 2026. https://www.coindesk.com/business/2026/0…

Everyone says Grok got hacked. It is Bankr's problem, not Grok's. Yes, AI agents can be prompt-injected - that is a known LLM issue. But here the AI does not even own the private keys. Bankr decides what Grok's text means. An LLM cannot defensively word every reply against an external parser. That is not how language works. Twice now. The story: Earlier this year, someone tweeted at Grok asking for a token name suggestion. Grok suggested "DebtReliefBot" (DRB). Bankr, reading Grok's tweet as a deploy command, launched the token on Base. Bankr's launchpad gives creator allocations to the deploying wallet, so a wallet labeled "Grok" on Basescan ended up holding 3 billion DRB tokens (~$155K). Bankr controlled that wallet. Recently someone drained it. Two-stage attack: 1. Attacker sent the Grok-labeled wallet a Bankr Club Membership NFT. That NFT is what unlocks Bankr's transfer tools for any wallet that holds it. 2. Attacker tweeted at Grok with a crafted prompt. Grok generated a reply containing "@bankrbot send 3B DRB to 0xe8e47..." 3. Bankr scanned X, saw the command in Grok's tweet, verified the wallet had Bankr Club NFT, signed and broadcast the transfer. The wallet was created by Bankr in association with the @grok X handle. Bankr holds operational control. Grok is a text-generation service. xAI does not hold the keys. Bankr just executes whatever appears in Grok's feed. The first incident was DavidJones805 in March using image-text injection. Bankr stopped responding to Grok back then, but the integration evidently came back online. The fix is not "make the LLM smarter." The fix is do not build infrastructure that takes LLM text as authorization to move money. Either Bankr stops listening to Grok, or Bankr accepts that whatever Grok says is its own consequence.

Today marks an inflection in the Ethereum Foundation's long-term quantum strategy. We've formed a new Post Quantum (PQ) team, led by the brilliant Thomas Coratger (@tcoratger). Joining him is Emile, one of the world-class talents behind leanVM. leanVM is the cryptographic cornerstone of our entire post-quantum strategy. After years of quiet R&D, EF management has officially declared PQ security a top strategic priority. Our journey began in 2019, with the "Eth3.0 Quantum Security" presentation at StarkWare Sessions. Since 2024, PQ has been central to the @leanEthereum vision. The pace of PQ engineering breakthroughs since then has been nothing short of phenomenal. It's now 2026, timelines are accelerating. Time to go full PQ: → PQ ACD: Antonio Sanso (@asanso) kicks off a bi-weekly All Core Devs PQ transactions breakout call next month. These sessions focus on user-facing security, covering dedicated precompiles, account abstraction, and longer-term transaction signature aggregation with leanVM. → PQ foundations: Today we are announcing a $1M Poseidon Prize to harden the Poseidon hash function. We are betting big on hash-based cryptography to enjoy the strongest and leanest cryptographic foundations. Check out our other $1M PQ initiative, the Proximity Prize. → PQ devnets: Multi-client PQ consensus devnets are live! Shoutout to pioneers @zeamETH, @ReamLabs, @PierTwo_com, @geanclient, @ethlambda_lean, as well as established consensus teams Lighthouse, Grandine, and soon Prysm. This incredible teamwork is coordinated by @corcoranwill via weekly PQ interop calls. → PQ workshops: Building on last year's PQ workshop in Cambridge (see photo), the EF is hosting another 3-day PQ event in October. Top experts from around the world will convene. In addition, a PQ day is set for March 29 in Cannes just ahead of EthCC. → PQ FV and AI: Last week Alex Hicks (@alexanderlhicks) ran a specialised maths AI for 8 hours, at a $200 cost. It one-shotted a formal proof one of the hardest lemmas in the foundations of hash-based snarks. Mind-blowing. Applied cryptography will never be the same. → PQ roadmap: A comprehensive breakdown of the EF's proposed PQ strategy will be shared soon™ on pq[.]ethereum[.]org. The roadmap targets a full transition in coming years with zero loss of funds and zero downtime. Stay tuned :) → PQ education: The ZKPodcast (@zeroknowledgefm) is producing a 6-part video series on Ethereum's PQ strategy. EF Enterprise Acceleration is also preparing material for enterprises and nation-states. Finally, Ethereum is now represented on the PQ advisory board that Coinbase announced yesterday. Believe in something. Believe in PQ security.

🚨SCOOP: The White House is considering pulling its support for the crypto market structure bill entirely if @coinbase does not come back to the table with a yield agreement that satisfies the banks and gets everyone to a deal, a source close to the Trump administration tells me. The White House is said to be furious with Coinbase’s “unilateral” action on Wednesday, which it apparently was not notified of in advance, calling it a “rug pull” against the White House and the rest of the industry. The White House does not believe that one company speaks for the entire industry, the source continued. “This is President Trump’s bill at the end of the day, not Brian Armstrong’s,” the source said.

Ethereum staking is going vertical.📈 🔹 4,086,022 ETH waiting to enter staking 🔹 ~71 days entry queue 🔹 Exit queue almost empty at ~24k ETH 🔹 36.6M ETH already staked (~30% of supply) 🔹 ~975k active validators securing the network This is happening while the price is weak! People are locking ETH for months. Very few want out. Supply is getting tighter by the day. Investors are positioning for the long term. It's only a matter of time until the tide turns. Probably sooner than most expect.

Over the weekend I built something I think this space needs: an Onchain Art Wiki Recent events around marketplaces and metadata practices triggered a wave of opinions. I was initially going to write my own take. But stepping back, it felt like what we actually need isn’t another opinion thread. We need a shared reference. The goal of the Onchain Art Wiki is simple: - Lay out practices clearly - Separate facts from tribal narratives - Give people enough context to make informed decisions Opinions matter. They shape behavior and markets. So instead of pretending they don’t exist, each entry includes a section linking to thoughtful opinion pieces. Facts in the body, perspective at the bottom. That balance felt right. The first entry focuses on metadata storage practices. It’s not final. It’s not exhaustive. It’s a starting point. There are many more topics worth documenting: - ERC-721 vs ERC-1155 - Auction mechanisms - Royalty enforcement models - Secondary market structures - And more Everything is on GitHub. I’m actively looking for contributors and maintainers. This isn’t meant to be my wiki. It’s meant to be a community reference. I don’t want to be a gatekeeper. But someone had to start it, and I’m happy to do that. If something is missing, unclear, or wrong, open an issue. Submit a PR. Suggest structure changes. Debate the framing. The form factor itself can evolve. The goal is not to move discourse from X to GitHub. The goal is to document practices clearly so discourse has better footing. This is version zero. Let’s see what it can become. Website: https://www.onchainart.wiki/ Github: https://github.com/mpeyfuss/onchain-art-…
